Re: cpan installing modules outside of the @INC path

Check your makepl_arg config from cpan shell, macrobat.

$ cpan
cpan>o conf makepl_arg
[download]

If it contains something, that's why.

Open source softwares? Share and enjoy. Make profit from them if you can. Yet, share and enjoy!

Alas, that key is empty. Still, if I install from the cpan shell, it goes somewhere outside my @INC path. If I then go into the ~/.cpan/build/Some-Module directory and do a `perl Makefile.PL make make test make install` [download] --it goes to the right place.	[reply] [d/l]

It installs things into `/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.6/`, but @INC is this: `/opt/at/perl5lib /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.6.1/i686-linux-thread-multi /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.6.1 /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.1/i686-linux-thread-multi /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.1 /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl .` [download]	[reply] [d/l] [select]
